Back from our quick trip to Vegas!

Stalkers we're back from Vegas, baby! It was only a 3 day trip, but I.am.exhausted! We went to Vegas 6 years ago for a whole week. I don't know how I survived back then (uhm probably because I was 6 years younger...). 3 days now & my legs are soooo sore! Vegas is hot people! But I'm sure you know it's a dry heat - not sticky like here! (We had the local weather on one night & the dude said, 'It's gonna be humid tomorrow.' I told B-rad 'I didn't think they had humidity?' He said, 'It's only gonna be like 30% - that IS humid to them!') Also, please note whose hair is NOT a curly, frizzy mess! This gal right here! I LOVED my hair in Vegas. I'm thinking of moving there for that reason alone...
We visited Red Rock Canyon one day. B-rad loves this kinda stuff. Me, not so much...

We also went back to Hoover Dam. They have the new bridge done & it is awesome! The main road for traffic no longer goes right over the dam.

Lets talk about my sunglasses. These are the ones I bought at Kohl's a while back. They lost a screw a month ago & B-rad fixed them for me. Wellllll, I lost another screw while we were in Vegas & had no way to fix them. B-rad MADE me buy new ones. Hmph.

Here are the new ones. I don't know if I like them. I feel like a bug with bling. B-rad said, "This is the style now. You really need to update your look!" Uhm, exsqueeze me?! (I know it's just because these are ALL plastic with NO screws for him to fix!)

Oh yea, that's the Hoover Dam behind us...

We went up the Eiffel Tower at night. One of these days I'm going to learn I don't like heights that much...MY FAVORITE!!!! The Bellagio Fountains! I am obesessed with these things!

View of the stripTHIS time I didn't have to sigh & pout & stomp my feet everytime I saw a Celine sign... THIS time, I already had my tickets! Woot woot!




There are SOOO many people walking the streets! Crossing the street is crazy! They do have some walkways OVER the strip & that is really nice! You don't have to worry about cars & they don't have to worry about you!

Of COURSE I have a million stories to tell you! B-rad & I both had cameras so I have 14,874 pictures to go through! I will work on sorting through them as soon as I can! I can't wait to tell you about all our adventures!

FUN!!! Looks like you all had a good time! :) I need your help since you have been to Vegas. When Scott returns from his deployment, we are going to Vegas. I get to plan the WHOLE thing. So, tell me...best places to stay, best things to see/do, shows, food, etc!!! Or, should I just scrap Vegas and go somewhere tropical!? haha! Be honest about Vegas...I know you will, that's why I am asking you! ha!
